"BREAKING NEWS:
LSE students' union says BBC used students as 'human shield' during N Korea filming"
[quote]The London School of Economics has demanded the BBC withdraw Monday's Panorama programme about North Korea.
It said Panorama reporter John Sweeney posed as one of its professors on a university society trip in order to film undercover in the country.
The LSE said students were "not given enough information to enable informed consent" and were "endangered".
Sweeney said the students were told a journalist was with them but that the LSE was not as it was not an LSE trip.
However, in an email sent to LSE students and staff, the university said: "It is LSE's view that the students were not given enough information to enable informed consent, yet were given enough to put them in serious danger if the subterfuge had been uncovered prior to their departure from North Korea.

Well talk about a dark light on the organisation, is it fair to blame just 1 guy on this or the whole organisation?
